### Migrating Legacy (HyperView) Reports

While you can now create and edit HyperView reports in version 4.3 MR1 and later, you may want to migrate your legacy HyperView reports into PC-DMIS's new reporting environment so that you can work with them there instead.

To convert an existing HyperView report:

1. Select File | Reporting | Edit | Legacy Report to open the HyperView report. The report will open in run mode.

2. Select File | Convert To and then select either Report or Form.

- If you select Report, PC-DMIS will convert your HyperView report to work with the Custom Report Editor. However, all objects may not be converted. Only objects supported by custom reporting will be converted. See "Creating Custom Reports".

- If you select Form, PC-DMIS will convert your HyperView report to work with the Forms Editor. However, all objects may not be converted. Only objects supported in Forms will be converted. See "Creating Forms".

You can then modify the report or form in the appropriate editor. The original HyperView report remains untouched.

Be aware that certain objects that used to appear in the HyperView Report Editor may not be supported by your selected migration route. For example, if your HyperView report contains button objects, and you migrate them into the Custom Report Editor, the buttons will appear in the editor, but they will not function in the Report window.
